    How can I display the total comments from a WordPress blog site on a web page?
    example : Blog Site Comments: 32

    I would like to have a script to read the URL: monessen1963.wordpress.com/feed ,
    then display the results on a web page.

    I know a little javascript, but not familiar with php.
